The action resumes in the UEFA Europa League as Galatasaray and Sparta Prague go head-to-head at Rams Park in the playoff round on Thursday.

Both sides are currently firing on all cylinders and we anticipate an action-packed contest as they resume their quest for continental glory.

Galatasaray turned in another impressive team display as they picked up a comfortable 2-0 victory over Istanbul Basaksehir in the Super Lig last Saturday.

Okan Buruk’s side have now won eight games on the trot, a run which has seen them pull clear at the top of the Super Lig table and also reach the quarter-finals of the Turkiye Kupasi.

Galatasaray now head to the Europa League after a 1-0 loss against Copenhagen in their Champions League Group A finale denied them a place in the knockout stages.

Sparta Prague, on the other hand, continued their charge to the Czech top-flight title as they cruised to a routine 3-0 victory over Karvina last Saturday.

Brian Priske’s men have now won 12 matches on the bounce across all competitions, a run which has seen them open up a five-point lead at the top of the 1. Liga standings.

Sparta Prague now turn their attention to the Europa League, where they finished second in Group C after picking up 10 points from their six matches.
